Hopeless in seattle?

12:54

Any hope for the M's? Would love your thoughts on the Walker trade.

Eno Sarris

12:55

Not sure Walker ever gets there, and Segura > Marte, and there's a chance Haniger is interesting.

Jonas

12:55

Do you like basketball?

Eno Sarris

12:55

Second-favorite sport to watch, favorite sport to play!

Honestly

12:56

Chances Keuchel bounces back to at least 2014 form?

Eno Sarris

12:56

Low threes ERA on the back of a 65% GB rate? That I'll give him as probably better than 50/50, but not 2015.

Dave

12:56

It's too bad you didn't have any Mad Elf while you were in DC. That would have gotten you over your cold in a hurry, and made you forget where you were too.

Nelson

Honey Mustard or Honey + Mustard?

Eno Sarris

12:56

I always do the latter.

Ham

Regarding the Stroman for Blackmon rumour that was circulating yesterday. Many Jays fans scoffed at the idea, but man, Blackmon is legit. Who would you like that swap better for?

Eno Sarris

12:58

Blackmon's been below average by wRC+ on the road in the past, but I think there's a Coors hangover and that park factors screw Rockies. I think the Blue Jays need Stroman more though, and wouldn't do it. They've got Carrera and Pillar and can cheap on a corner bat in this market.

Choo Choo

12:58

Maybe I'm crazy, but I could see Bruce being a pretty good bat in Tex or Tor. DH him or give him a 1b mit.

Eno Sarris

12:58

Toronto hasn't been interested enough so far for some reason.

Michael

12:58

I read Eric's report on Moncada. I understand he has amazing tools and that's why he's number one. But don't you think too much weight is being put on his physique and not enough on swing and miss? He's not a running back trying to truck d-lineman,

Eno Sarris

12:59

Me, Carson and Eric talked about this for a long time. I still don't know. Definitely the ceiling goes to Moncada because if he pairs skills he's shown before with those tools he's capable of being Trout on the infield. But there's more risk than someone like a Benintendi.

Pip

12:59

Everyone keeps saying that the nats got robbed, but the pirates wanted Roble+Giolito+ more for Cutch!! And it seemed everyone thought Pittsburgh may not be getting enough on that deal! Is it mostly just Adam Eaton being undervalued?

Eno Sarris

1:00

I'd take Eaton and keeping Robles for sure. Cutch's defense has really fallen off in center, it's not just positioning.

Ken Burns

Team A gets: Lewis Brinson, Luke Weaver, Cody Allen

Eno Sarris

1:00

Team B gets a wedgie.

IsIt2017Yet?

1:00

Pirates probably actually lost ground so far this offseason, yeah?

Eno Sarris

1:00

Ain't over yet.

Matt Damon

MATT. DAMON.

Eno Sarris

Ken Burns

1:01

Team A: Cody Allen, Lewis Brinson, Luke Weaver; Team B: J.D. Martinez, Glasnow...who gets a better haul?

Eno Sarris

1:02

You know what I think I take A. Love Allen as a closer, Brinson is exciting. JDM is best player in deal, but that's not dogma for me.

Yancy from Myers

1:03

Favorite sandwich you made/have eaten in the past month?

Eno Sarris

1:03

Man it really might have been one of the more simple ones: Lentils (with ginger, garlic, cumin, curry, onions) on a baguette with tri-tip and melted gruyere.

Giants - thoughts on what they do with their outfield this offseason?

Eno Sarris

1:04

I thought they had ten million left but apparently their owner said they are over the lux tax and need to be salary neutral from here on out, so I guess they go with Mac and Jarret, who we should call Jack because he jacks dongers and that rhymes with Mac.

Drew

1:06

Why do the Marlins want Jansen other than the fact that he's good? I was always under the impression that you build the bullpen last, and only after getting the everyday guys and SPs figured out. They don't seem to be there yet.

Eno Sarris

1:06

I don't get it!

They either think they are closer than I think they are, or they want to trade Ramos for a lot, or they just saw what happened in the postseason and are blindly copying.

Raindog

1:06

What do you think of a suggested Brach - Granderson swap? Apparently the O's wanted the Mets to pay down some of Granderson's $15M in such a trade

Eno Sarris

1:07

I'd do it. They got a lot from Ganderson, but he's not a spring chicken, and he's on a one year deal, and Brach is good.

Matt

1:07

How much is Holland going to get?

Eno Sarris

1:07

Something like Hill? 1/6? With an option for more?

DTH

1:07

Will Sam Travis (the Luigi to Schwarber's Mario at IU) be an average MLB regular? also, had Fieldwork in Berkeley yesterday on your recommendation, that mexican hot chocolate beer was ++

Eno Sarris

1:07

I don't think so and awesome!

Matt

1:08

Is Manaea the kinda guy that I risk paying $7 next year, or the kinda guy that I throw back into auction and hope to pay $4?

Eno Sarris

1:08

In a twelve team throw back and try to get cheaper.
